Brought home the family button tin when we cleared Mum's house last year. Mr'icks wanted a button so I opened up the treasure trove, then spent ages looking at the buttons. Amazing how small circular bits of plastic and metal can bring back memories. Most of these buttons were used as tokens when we played the Little Grey Rabbit card game.
These very unique Vintage Wooden Football Buttons on a card from Fashions Latest. I am not sure of the date of the buttons but know that they are from a collection that came from before 1965. These buttons are about 1 1/4'' long and 1/2'' high. There is a metal bar on the top that looks like stitching. The buttons have a self-shank. The card is distressed, sold as is. If you need additional pictures please let me know.
These buttons will be for sale at the Toronto Comic Arts Festival, and once I get back from there, you'll be able to order sets of them from me.
a whole crapload of buttons. the large bag in the middle is made up of $0.10 bags from portage la prairie MCC and carded buttons from the brandon MCC, all sorted by colour one morning at the cabin. the green, blue and red bags are from the antique store in portage, and the other bags are from junk for joy and the antique store in portage, they were bought in glass jars and moved into baggies to bring home.
Hand made polymer clay (fimo) buttons. Different colours swirled together and made into cute buttons.
I ordered some buttons with my logo on it. Love how they turned out!
If you see me at WPPI, be sure and say "hi" and I'll totally give you one.
I attended a Greater Reading Area Photography Meet Up group event title "Fun with Liquid Drops".
I made an effort to capture work with the liquid drops but didn't do well. There were several other subjects around the room to try out some macro skills.
Nikon D5100 images were taken with a Nikon 60mm Macro lens. This isn't an AFS lens so focus was done manually.
Nikon P7700 images were taken with the camera set to Macro. While on the tripod, I made an effort to use manual focus, not easily done but I worked at it.
It should be noted that the meet up was held at the Berks Photographic Society's facility.
Besides gaining some macro experience, I took this opportunity to practice using Lightroom 5.
I avoid buttons. Because they're creepy and disgusting. I eschew clothes that have them and I avert my eyes from them. My former manager used to have a grey sweater with large red plastic buttons that ran up the length of one side--it gave me the heebie-jeebies.
There is a name for this, apparently: Koumpounophobia
Although mine is a mild case, it is good to know that I'm not the only one.
We decided the buttons4obama machine needed to churn out some buttons in support of health care reform. We made these to give away at our local health care meeting with Congressman Jim McDermott on Wednesday.
If you have a 1.25 inch button machine and want to make your own to give out (non-commercial use), let us know and we'll get the artwork templates to you.
Please note, we do not have any of these buttons to sell or give away. This was a one run thing. But we encourage everyone to take matters into your own hands and make your own health care reform buttons! For resources of how to go about that, check out the Buttons 4 Obama website.
This is a small detail of the 1800 total buttons we pressed (Designs by the always genius Devlin Thompson) for the rock combo Deerhunter on their current "Weird Era" tour.
Thanks for the link Staci. Kind of freaky isn't she? I mean more than usual. LOL!
This is a little fun program attached to a new film coming out. Its based on the children's book Coraline.

Starting to get desperate now looking for brightly coloured things around the house!
Desperation shot of buttons.
Since the starting mailing date is my birthday, I'm putting little gifties in with the ribbon (hobbit-style).
Because my ribbon collection was pretty boring, I used this opportunity to buy all new ribbon (10 kinds), so not only am I getting some back from the swap, I already have a nice ribbon box from preparing for this swap.
